Inger Nilsson as Pippi Longstocking
Definition
A child is a young human. Depending on context it may mean someone who is not yet an adult, or someone who has not yet hit puberty (someone who is prepubescent). --http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Children, Apr 2004Pippi Longstocking
Pippi Longstocking (Swedish Pippi Långstrump, whole name Pippilotta Delicatessa Windowshade Mackrelmint Efraim's Daughter Longstocking and in the Swedish original Pippilotta Viktualia Rullgardina Krusmynta Efraimsdotter Långstrump) is a fictional character in a series of children's books created by author Astrid Lindgren. She is a nine-year-old girl with red braids that stick out sideways.
She is very unconventional, assertive, extraordinarily strong, and rich. She lives alone with a monkey and a horse in an old house named Villa Villekulla. Her friends Tommy and Annika accompany her on her adventures. --http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pippi_Longstocking [May 2006] Pippi lives with a complete lack of adult supervision, and frequently mocks and dupes the adults she does encounter; this certainly adds to her appeal for young readers.
